Hyperphenylalaninemia (HPA) may be caused by deficiency of phenylalanine hydroxylase or tetrahydrobiopterin (BH4), the essential cofactor for the aromatic amino acid hydroxylases. 6-Pyruvoyl-tetrahydropterin synthase (PTPS) deficiency is a major cause of BH4 deficient HPA. In this study, seven singl
